“Do you dare to reveal your unvarnished self to the world?” (2023)

This painting is part of my Saluki art series, "All Dressed Up, Nowhere to Bark," which explores the duality of appearances and identity. It satirizes how external beauty can obscure or distort one's true self. Are we genuinely expressing our individuality, or are we hiding behind masks? Do we dare to reveal our unvarnished selves to the world?
